Control what your AI agents do in ShipStation.

Let your team build AI agents for ShipStation. Bollard AI controls what each one can do, and buying labels stays off by default.

What agents can do

Set what each agent can do across your fulfilment account.

Each area of ShipStation, like orders, shipments, or labels, gets one of three levels: Off, Read, or Full use. Anything not allowed is denied, and buying labels is a separate switch.

Off
No access
The agent can't see that part of your account.
Read
Read-only
The agent can read orders and shipments in that area. It can't change or buy anything.
Full use
Create and update
The agent can create and update orders in that area.

Some actions stay off until explicitly turned on

Each one spends money or removes orders for good, so it could override the limits set elsewhere.

Set up & manage

Connect once. Manage everyone from there.

Connect once, then control access person by person. No new keys to hand out.

Step 1 · Set up

Connect once, company-wide

An admin connects your company's ShipStation a single time. Bollard AI lays out the areas of your account, and anything you don't allow stays out of reach for every agent.

Step 2 · Manage

Control access per person and agent

From one dashboard, set what every person and their agents can reach. Change it any time, with no new keys for anyone.

Example

An order prep agent.

A fulfilment agent tidies orders and can read your shipments, but it can't create a label or mark an order shipped.

Monitor activity

The security model

Top-tier security.

Bollard AI is access control for AI agents. It sits between your agents and ShipStation, so they never hold your ShipStation keys and never reach ShipStation directly.

Everything runs through Bollard AI

Agents send their requests to Bollard AI, not to ShipStation. Bollard AI checks each one against your rules and passes only the allowed requests through.

Denied by default

Every area starts off-limits, and creating labels is held back on top of that. An agent gets in only where you've allowed it, and anything Bollard AI doesn't recognise is refused and held for review, never waved through on a guess.

Your keys stay sealed

Your ShipStation keys are sealed in a vault unique to your company and never shown again. Bollard AI unlocks them only for the instant an allowed request needs it.

Activity you can read

Every attempt is recorded in plain English: who or which agent, what they tried, which order or label, and the decision. The record is readable and can't be edited after the fact.

Questions

ShipStation, answered.

Does connecting ShipStation hand Bollard AI your whole account?+
Only the areas you allow. An admin connects your ShipStation, and you decide which areas, like orders or shipments, each agent can reach. Bollard AI doesn't browse or copy your account. It sits in front of it and checks every request the agents make, passing or blocking each one.
Can an agent buy labels or mark orders shipped?+
Not unless you turn it on. Creating labels and marking orders shipped are held off by default, so an agent can tidy orders and read shipments without ever spending money or shipping on its own, until you explicitly allow it.
Can an agent see more than the person who owns it?+
No. An agent reaches only what its owner reaches. An explicit Off always overrides an inherited permission.
Where do our ShipStation keys live?+
Sealed in an encrypted vault, behind a key unique to your company. It's never shown again once connected, and Bollard AI unseals it only for the instant an allowed request needs it.
What happens when an agent tries something it's not allowed to do?+
Bollard AI blocks the request before it reaches ShipStation, and the blocked attempt lands in the activity record with the reason.
How do we connect ShipStation?+
An admin connects the company's ShipStation once. Bollard AI seals the connection and lays out the areas of your account to set rules for. From then on, all management happens in the Bollard AI dashboard.
